Haven't written on here for a bit, been trying to grieve unsuccessfully I may add.

Today I dreamt I lost my Mum in a street in town and I was panicking and stressed. Woke up just wanting to hear her voice so I watched a video on my phone of her.

Been cleaning my livingroom for Christmas tree to go up.... its 5 hours in and still not got far been in tears all afternoon.

I just want my Mum.... feeling really sad not really in the Christmas spirit either

That’s got to be hard. The first Christmas without her.

Yeah she has been gone nearly 5 months. I thought I could handle it but I really can't

@Miss Laura, I'm sending you hugs and strength during this difficult time. I fully understand how hard it is to pass the first major holidays without a mom. Did you have a traditional family get together in the past? Does your family have a plan for the coming holidays? It was so painful for my family the first Christmas after my mother died that we went to a Chinese restaurant.

Yeah we have decided to keep everything the same in regards to the day its self. Its just hard the lead up. I have bought her favourite perfume for her as a gift and her favourite sweets. We have our traditions that we will keep on Christmas Eve. It's just going to be soooooo hard. I can't even put my tree and decorations up without blubbering
